 Preface 

 

My heart was in my throat, sweat layered my forehead, as I watched the hands of the clock; was it just me or was it that every second grew shorter?

 

10 minutes

  I watched the clock with hidden despair; every time the hand of the clock moved, the torture of his presence became even more terrifying. Even the thought of being near him frightened me and it was only ten minutes to go now. I felt my heart begin to race and my hands began to get moist with sweat.

  Steven, my co-worker and good friend, was looking at me with a strange expression on his face and I wondered what it was that caused his eyebrows to bunch together as if he were worried about something. I could not understand why this was, could it be that he was worried about me?

  5 minutes

  I knew what would be waiting for me when I finished work for the day, I found it nearly impossible to remain still in my sturdy office chair because I knew that my boyfriend, Daniel, would be waiting to pick me up and drive me home.

  Why should I be shaking, you ask?
